The Cumaean prophetess linked to last King of Rome. She foretold the coming of a saviour whom Christians identified as Jesus. She was entrusted with the original Sibylline books; a source of ancient wisdom consulted throughout the history of the Republic and the Roman Empire.

One of three classical Roman female figures reproduced from a number of classical Roman designs which can be seen in various museums and stately homes.
